So when do you guys figure we will start seeing all the backstabbing and smear campaigns? I have a feeling that in the next couple of months that this election is really going to get nasty. I hate when all the smear campaigns start because I really think that it overshadows what the views of the politician are. So do you all foresee this one getting nasty?

I believe there are plenty of smear campaigns going on already. It's going to get tougher, but recent news articles don't seem clean at all... Obama's drug use has been brought up and I don't know if this counts as a smear campaign but it certainly is a smearjob on the media's part to use that awful photo of Hillary Clinton. :ohmy:

Smear campaigns just totally override the whole issue! But media doesnt help as they smear it just as bad! I think media is more to blame than anyone else!

I think there is sometimes a fine line between smear campaigns and merely stating the truth about the opponent. But I do agree completely that the media does plenty of smearing of their own. All political affiliations aside, I think the race for the Democratic nomination may be more heated than the race for President.
